There is no use attempting to disguise
the fact that newspaper is what its home
city make it. Ifthe merchants and manu-
tacturers do not advertise there can be no
exhibition Of enterprise on the pant Of the
local paper. On the other hand, if the men
of the city are public spirited they will come
to the front aud make showing in the col
umns of the local paper They reap imme-
date advantage from such acton and at
the same time call attention to their city so

A GOOD BILL

The bill introduced into the Legislature
changing the time Of holding county cleo
tons to November is good one, and we
hope will pass. In counties where there is
registration law, the present law does not
afford, from the first of January 10 the time
OF holding the election, sufficient time to
prepare the registration list, have them
printed and get them out to the different
precincts.

that he would be able TO accomplish
but little In company with Mr..

three experienced mountaineers be
cut loose from the main party and
proceeded to thoroughly do the Park

In exploration, and negatives were

reached the Falls. from the Upper
basin. The river 10 frozen above
the Falls, and the Ice projects
several feet beyond the precipice, hid
ing the great cataract from view to an
observer standing at the landing at

Of Mr.. Haynes led him TO descend the
gigantic and almost perpendicular
walls Of the Grand Canyon TO the river

by freezing had formed q beautiful

lent river. This arch, though slippery
